Try to use .ActiveDocument.Sections(i) approach instead. Like:

with .ActiveDocument.Sections(1)
.Headers(wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Range.Text = "Header1 text"
.Footers(wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Range.Text = "Footer1 text"
endwith
with .ActiveDocument.Sections(2)
.Headers(wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Range.Text = "Header2 text"
.Footers(wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Range.Text = "Footer2 text"
endwith
